We love cats and dogs drawing competition. To be judged by Emily Gravett!

We love cats and dogs here at The Golden Treasury and we're sure you do too! Our new window displays celebrate all that is great about all the meows and woofs in the world. 

So, we are calling on the huge creative talent we have here in Southfields, to get scribbling, painting, doodling, sticking, colouring, as part of a competition to contribute to our window displays with a picture of a cat or dog. This is a competition, so of course we need to judge and we are beyong excited to say that author and illustrator Emily Gravett will be coming along to The Golden Treasury to pick the best!





Emily is no stranger to the subject of our furry friends. She has written and illustrated Dogs, a celebration of all the wonderful characteristics that make up man's best friend and also Matilda's Cat, a story of the sweet friendship between Matilda and her cat.

There are some brilliant prizes to be had, so drop in to pick-up an entry form and get creative!!!! Pop into the shop if you have any questions. Closing date is Friday 31st May. Thanks to Catherine at Macmillan for the great support too!
